With NO MELLO ROOS, solar power, and luxury finishes throughout, this is the perfect blend of elegance, functionality, and long-term value.

Upstairs, the primary suite includes a private retreat, spa-inspired bathroom with dual quartz vanities, an oversized soaking tub wrapped in quartz, and a spacious walk-in closet. A former loft has been converted into a true sixth bedroom with its own closet, providing even more flexible space for your needs. Additional upgrades include plantation shutters throughout, ceiling fans, a cozy fireplace, soaring high ceilings, and a 220V EV charging outlet in the garage. Located just a short walk to one of the community’s exclusive resident-only pools, this home also offers access to premier amenities including 3 pools and spas, tennis and pickleball courts, sports courts, dog park, BBQ areas, outdoor kitchens, parks, and scenic walking trails.

Pros & Cons

Pros

No Mello Roos & Solar Power: The absence of Mello Roos taxes and the inclusion of solar power provide significant financial advantages and enhance the property's long-term value and energy efficiency.
Exceptional Indoor-Outdoor Living: Designed for seamless entertaining, the home features an island courtyard with a koi pond, multiple oversized full-wall sliders, and an expansive California room, creating a unique and integrated living experience.
Spacious & Flexible Floor Plan: With 6 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, including a main floor bedroom with full bath and versatile flex spaces (like a converted loft), the layout accommodates diverse family needs and multi-generational living.
Luxury Finishes & Gourmet Kitchen: Built by Toll Brothers, the home boasts high-end finishes throughout, including a chef's kitchen with built-in refrigerator, 6-burner cooktop, double ovens, large island, reverse osmosis system, and additional upgrades like plantation shutters.
Premier Community Amenities: Located within the highly sought-after Baker Ranch, residents enjoy access to exclusive amenities such as 3 pools and spas, tennis and pickleball courts, sports courts, a dog park, BBQ areas, and scenic walking trails.

Cons

Limited Private Outdoor Space: The 4,000 sqft lot size is relatively modest for a 6-bedroom home, which may limit traditional backyard space beyond the integrated courtyard and California room.
Ongoing HOA Fees: The $225 monthly association fee is a recurring cost that adds to the overall housing expense, a common characteristic of master-planned communities with extensive amenities.
Potential for Higher Density: As part of a master-planned community, the property may have closer proximity to neighboring homes and less individual privacy compared to properties on larger, more secluded lots.
